BZA approves ADU EHR at St. Luke’s Drive; owner will manage bookings
Summary
An owner‑occupied application to use a one‑bedroom ADU above a garage at 2125 Saint Luke's Drive as an extended home rental was unanimously approved by the Charleston County BZA, with staff conditions including site plan review, Article 6.8 compliance and noise‑ordinance adherence.
The Charleston County Board of Zoning Appeals unanimously approved Jan. 5 an applicant’s request to use a one‑bedroom accessory dwelling unit (ADU) above a garage at 2125 Saint Luke’s Drive for extended home rental use.
Staff advised the ADU and site provide adequate buffering and five on‑site parking spaces and that the request may meet the three primary approval criteria in Article 6.8. Applicant Thomas (Tom) Kozlik told the board the ADU was designed for family use and that he and family members will manage bookings in‑house; he said the main house is occupied year‑round. There were no public speakers in opposition. The board approved the application subject to the four staff‑recommended conditions, and staff will mail the written decision within 10 days.
The approval allows the owner to proceed with zoning permit processing after completing required site plan review and meeting the conditions listed by staff.
